The Martha’s Vineyard Land Bank reported revenues of $318,900 for the business week ending on Friday, March 25, 2022. The land bank receives its funds from a two per cent fee charged on many Vineyard real estate transactions.
Much of the land bank revenue last week came from the town of Edgartown, where three transactions resulted in $137,500, and West Tisbury, where four transactions resulted in $136,900.
One transaction earned $19,500 in Oak Bluffs, one transaction earned $18,000 in Tisbury, and one transaction generated $7,000 in Aquinnah.
No eligible transactions were recorded in Chilmark.
The land bank uses its revenues to purchase and manage land for purposes of conservation, preservation and passive recreation. To date the agency has participated in the purchase of more than 3,882 acres of Vineyard land.
